Wagner Weltweit

With this project Sounding Situations creates a multi-perspective music theatre about the activities of the Russian mercenary group ‘Wagner’ as a musical cinemascope. Tik-Tok mythologies and Discord legends meet an uncertain present.
Together with the instrumentalists, a multi-layered and heterogeneous live composition is created. Sensitive, contemporary, Dionysian and minimal — a real-time Wagner in the news studio.
